The combinations formula is nCr = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}
n = complete value set     r = desired goal
to find combinations we find all combos for 5,6,7,8,and 9 and add them together.
which come out as 126, 84, 36, 9 and 1
Therefore there are 256 combinations

A) Change 9 out of 50 to a percentage.​
Artist 52 [7]

Hey there! Your question’s answer would be 18%..

Ok so 9/50 would be 9% out of 50% which is also 100%. If you want to find 50% turn to 100%, multiply 50 with 2 to get 100.

So you do the same thing to 9%. 9 times 2 would be 18%.

Final Result: 9% out of 100% (whole)

A first number plus twice a second number is 13. Twice the first number plus the second totals 14. find the numbers​
sashaice [31]

Answer:

the first number is 5 the second number is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

first number = x

second number = y

X+2y=13 given this isolate x  x = 13-2y

2x+y=14 substitute 13-2y for x

2(13-2y)+y=14

26-4y+y=14

-3y=-12

y=4 taking this number substitute into either equation above

x+2(4)=13

x+8=13

x=5

Tania took selfies with her 8 cousins. Each cousins is in 2 or 3 picture. There are exactly 5 cousins on each picture. How many
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

How many selfies did Tania take? (my first answer would be too many, but that's probably not the answer you're looking for :-) )

We know that each cousin appear 2 or 3 times overall.

If she would have taken each cousin exactly 2 times, that would be 16 cousins/photos

If she would have taken each cousin exactly 3 times, that would be 24 cousins/photos

We know there's exactly 5 cousins per photo...

so we have to find a multiple of 5 cousins/photos that is between 16 and 24.

The only possibility is 20 cousins/photos.  20 / 5 = 4 photos.
